What are the best tours in Kigali?

Are guided tours in and around Kigali worth it?

Yes, guided tours in and around Kigali are definitely worth it. While the city has a reputation for being among Africa's cleanest and safest, local guides are your ticket to a more meaningful visit, whether you want to learn about mountain gorillas or the coffee industry. Guides can also take you to local markets and explain how they work while introducing you to traditional foods like isombe and ugali. Plus, some experiences, such as mountain gorilla trekking, are only offered on guided tours.

Per one customer who booked the Kigali City Tour: History, Art and Local Highlights, "I had an amazing time on my Kigali city tour, and I have to give a big shoutout to my guide, Jermaine. He was absolutely wonderful, knowledgeable, friendly, and made the whole experience feel personal and fun. He took me to so many different places throughout the day, each one offering a unique glimpse into the city's culture, history, and daily life. One of the highlights was enjoying a delicious local lunch, which really added to the authentic feel of the tour."

How much do Kigali tours cost?

Guided tours in and around Kigali are available at a wide range of prices, and it's easy to find options for most budgets. Two-hour walking tours of the city start around US$20 per person, while cooking, coffee brewing, and arts classes will set you back around US$35 per person. The most expensive group tours—about US$200 per person—are full-day safari experiences in Akagera National Park. Of course, private experiences and multi-day tours will cost more.

For an immersive tour at the lower end of the price range, book the Kigali E-Bike City Tour with Breakfast for around US$39 per person. This 3-hour small group tour passes by some of Kigali's top sites and includes stops at the Biryogo Car Free Food Street, Niyo Art Gallery, and Imbuga City Walk. Pricier tours include the Mount Kigali Hike and Zipline Adventure Tour (Pick up & drop off). For around US$150 per person, you'll enjoy round-trip transportation to Mount Kigali, where you can choose from ziplining, horseback riding, archery, and other recreational activities. The half-day tour ends with a visit to a community by the Nyabarongo River.

What activities are included on Kigali tours?

Kigali tours feature an array of activities, so it's easy to find something of interest for everyone in your group. Walking tours focus on everything from history to food to art and coffee. Biking, hiking, and motorcycle tours are also popular and a great way to cover a lot of ground in this hilly city. If time and budget allow, you can also book day trips to head on safari in Akagera National Park or even go gorilla trekking in Volcanoes National Park.

All-day or multi-day Kigali tours will help you pack in as many sights and activities as possible. For example, on the 2-Days Akagera Wildlife Safari, you'll go bird-watching by boat, spend the night at a lodge in the bush, and bundle up for morning and evening game drives. If you're lucky, you'll get to see Africa's famous Big Five: elephant, rhino, Cape buffalo, lion, and leopard.
